MacBook Pro Sound "Pop"

Before any sound on my new MacBook Pro, it makes a POP sound. however, is sound is already playing, it does not pop. It only pops the first time any sound is played. If you wait a second, it will do it again...but it you keep making the sound continuously, it does not pop. Just watch and you'll see!

The pop sound you are getting can be turned off in the system preferences page. Click on the SOUND icon and click the box marked Play feedback when volume is changed, you will not get the popping sound any more.

no, I don't mean that sound. The "quack" when adjusting the volume in fine. I was just that as an example of when it "turns on the speakers" It does it with any sound. Like I could go to youtube and before the video plays - POP!

[slapattak]

Ive also noticed this if for instance you have itunes paused and then resume playing.. quite annoying..

Same problem on my new iMac. Not as severe... it needs about 10 seconds of silence for it to pop... taking it to the Genius Bar over the Christmas break :(

No computer is perfect its up to personal preference I grew up with PCs so I liked them more but then I got a mac and loved it, I love both mac and PC.

@sdschramm Well, it's just an ultra beutiful screen, my laptop's screen isn't as great (but besides the awful viewing angles, it's not too bad), ooooh and that wallpaper, is really awesome! i had no idea you took it! can you send it to me? if you can't or don't want to, it's ok. thanks! oh and by the way, how's that macbook going? its been a year since you uploaded that video, is it still going strong? any problems?
